It is often used to describe a state of isolation, either physically or metaphorically. In the biblical context, it can refer to individuals or groups who are set apart, either by choice or circumstance, for a specific purpose or due to a particular condition.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, being alone or isolated could have both positive and negative connotations. Solitude was sometimes necessary for spiritual reflection, prayer, or purification. However, isolation could also be a result of social ostracism, illness, or divine judgment. The concept of being set apart is significant in the Hebrew Bible, often relating to holiness and the distinctiveness of God's people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to be separate, isolated<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>alone (1), lonely (1), shoots (2), straggler (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I.
